[MEncoder-users] Mencoder and PVM support (The Wanderer)

[Markus Mohr]

That is correct. PVM would be the ability to encode one task one multiple machines.
Problem is (for me) that pvm-project is rather old and probably difficult to implement. so i want to check 
if that is even interesting to invest time in. if not then reasons would be interesting.

Thank you!
